Directions

Ingredients

  • 2 medium Cucumber, seeded and diced
  • 1 tablespoon Sea Salt

Step 1

Peel cucumbers, then cut in half lengthwise and take a small spoon and scrape out seeds. Discard seeds. Slice cucumbers, then put in a colander, sprinkle on 1 T salt, and let stand for 30 minutes to draw out water. Drain well and wipe dry with paper towel.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons Lemon Juice, (about one lemon)
  • 1 clove Garlic, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Dill, finely chopped
  • Black Pepper
  • 3 cups Greek Yogurt, unsweetened

Step 2

In food processor with steel blade, add cucumbers, garlic, lemon juice, dill, and a few grinds of black pepper. Process until well blended, then stir this mixture into the yogurt. Taste before adding any extra salt, then salt if needed. Place in refrigerator for at least two hours before serving so flavors can blend together.
 

Step 3

You can pour over any meat, salad or vegetable, as well as drizzle over meat on a whole wheat pita with chopped tomatoes and have your own Greek Gyros Sandwich!!
